A TEN Percent, (10%) buyer's premium will be added to the successful offer to determine the contract selling price. For example, if you offer $100,000 for a property, the contract sale price will be $110,000.  The property is sold in “AS-IS” condition, and is not contingent upon buyer's financing, condition of property, appraisal, inspection, etc. Buyers shall rely on their own information, judgment, and inspection of the property. Title will be conveyed via Marketable Deed from all owners of record and free and clear of all liens. The property taxes will be prorated to the date of sale. The closing will take place within 45 days of the sale unless specified otherwise or as soon thereafter as necessary to correct any defects in title. Time is of the essence with respect to all closings. If you are NOT prepared to make the required Earnest Money Deposit, execute the required documents, and close within the timeframe stated, please do not place an offer. Day of sale announcements take precedence over any previously printed material, or any other oral statements made.

Participant Verification: The identity of all participants will be and must be verified. Participants rights are provisional, and if complete verification is not possible, Motleys may reject the registration, and participants activity may be terminated. You will need a verifiable address, a verifiable phone number, and a verifiable email address.

In certain cases, the remaining balance of the buyer’s premium is due within three business days of the sale if it is not fulfilled with the initial $5,000 deposit. The entirety of the remaining balance is due at closing. Purchaser shall be responsible for all wire transfer fees or cashier’s check fees.

Default:  If the closing does not occur for any reason whatsoever, other than solely due to the fault of the Special Commissioner, Special Commissioner shall retain the earnest money deposit as a measure of liquidated damages. This provision shall in no way affect the right of Special Commissioner and Motleys Sales, Inc./Motleys Asset Disposition Group to rely upon and to exercise any other legal remedies or recourse available to them, including without limitation seeking specific performance or monetary damages, in the event the closing contemplated herein does not occur due to default by Purchaser. Purchaser further agrees to pay all attorney fees, court costs and other costs of collection/enforcement incurred by Motleys and Special Commissioner due to a default by Purchaser.
